Best Seafood Restaurants in Monterey Park

The food was all excellent, we had a wonderful experience celebrating a retirement. The service from Ben was excellent with great wine recommendations. The Chef, Jorge came out to greet us and explain all the different appetizers. A beautiful meal with exceptional service. We will definitely come back in the near future. Highly recommend!

Since 1990 when I enjoyed my first dinner at WaterGrill during intermission the Pulitzer Prize winning Premiere production of Angels in America to my 50th Birthday dinner in 2016 till 2024 Christmas Eve; WaterGrill is an ever green of fine food, drink excellent atmosphere and great service.

Rately do I post a glowing review of restaurants, but @nikuxla will be getting one. From host, server (thank you, Wilson), to details: A+ King crab 🦀 legs were so fresh, that when you pulled the shell from on end, the crab meat slides off the shell of the other. We were most impressed by the Wagyu Udon, which had the exact Al Dente texture and taste, with the coated level of wagyu meat sauce around the veggies, noodles, and overall. Serving was correct for 2 people per order. Would have loved to have tried the fresh scallops (which were not available upon our visit). But the lobsters were adequate to adjust our attention, along with the King crab and Snow crab legs. Sashimi was constantly being topped off, and the ponzu and soy were good quality. The toro and hamachi were good quality cuts, and not veiny. Wagyu Japan and American options were a variety of 5 different choices. We were impressed with the quality. We also tried the Chilean sea bass (not hugely impressed), the Miso Corn (very good), Wagyu Black Pepper Don (average), but our Lamb Lollipop Katsu was our chef cooked favorite. Wilson was excellent. He provided us with a special cheesecake that was not available to the public, and we will definitely return for this reason. Thank you. Overall for the $99 price tag, we would consider returning. Our experience was the day before Xmas. I specifically requested a table with a grill, and was provided exactly the table. Would not ask for more. We will return. Thank you again.

The food was tasty and the specials were great for a family! I want to to again. It was packed because of the holidays and we had a reservation. The hostesses forgot about us so it was as a longer wait.

We were visiting Los Angeles from Washington DC. I heard wonderful things and saw great reviews about Providence. Wonderful experience at Providence. We sat at the chef’s table. The staff was excellent and professional. They answered all questions and requests. Chef Micheal Cimarusti was very gracious and welcoming. His food was delicious and the presentation of the food was beautiful and elegant. Definitely would dine again at Providence. It was an amazing experience and wonderful night.
